Abstract
- A study was conducted to present a dental office-based healthy weight intervention (HWI) protocol designed for all children. It is argued that dental care professionals have an opportunity to provide obesity prevention interventions to their patients. Findings indicate that preventive dental office visits are an opportunity for dental care professionals to provide HWIs.
